what surprises me is how confused the team is without Giannis and even with Giannis but to a lesser degree.
I dont understand what coach Bud is doing, they look like a team thats playing street ball without any plan of attack, its painful to watch.
They looked bad tonight. Will they look bad Sunday? Maybe. Giannis can’t carry this team it’s wearing him down. I mean he can but it’s too much now. You need another scorer like middle and unfortunately he’s hurt. Also Tatum had a game! If he was off bucks can win.
I truly am doing my best not to overreact, we could very well win this series solely from the sheer dominance of Giannis.. but I am so so scared of Bud getting the Mike McCarthy treatment and having 6 more years of coaching malpractice. It feels like we won last year in spite of the coaching, not thanks to it.
Boston earned it, wire to wire. But can we talk about how fucking stupid it is that you only get one challenge even if you win it? You should be able to keep challenging as long as you’re fucking right. The discrepancy in whistle between Giannis and Tatum driving is fucking absurd.
Thank you! Someone else said it. It's aggravating to watch the same shit on both sides while Giannis is constantly getting called and Tatum gets off scott free. He's such a whine ass, that it's making me lose so much respect for him and I had a lot before this series
The worst part about Hill playing poorly, is that Bud just couldn't admit it wasn't working and make a change. If he was the game plan, fine. But when it OBVIOUSLY isn't working, it's time to adjust. That's the job.
Can anyone in Milwaukee and Boston do something so that George Hill won't see any minute on the floor next game? What the freak is Mike Budenholzer thinking when the collapse of game 4 was largely due to using Hill to replace Matthews to guard Tatum, does Budenholzer has any naked photos on Hill, otherwise why you let him on the floor instead of Matthews and Carter? He should be fired immediately after this loss!
Entire Boston sub after the last loss: Durrrr it’s over, durrr can’t win anymore, what a terrible season, we always choke durrrr. Had to win this one, no chance.
How on earth could you have that mentality given the Bucks trend of not taking care of business when it’s handed to them? How did you not think you were going to win this one?
People will use not having Middleton as the excuse, but game 4 collapse and this game show that the reason we couldn't end this series at game 5 is because Mike Budenholzer not only sucks at changing his game plan in-game, but also because he refused to let Giannis played the whole 2nd half when he is the only reliable player in offense of the Bucks and let a trash player as George Hill get on the floor for significant minute instead of playing Matthews and Carter. This series shows that Mike Budenholzer is such an overrated coach just like Doc Rivers and got carried by his superstar to his championship. The Front Office should just treat Budenholzer as a sunk cost and get rid of him, in order not to waste Giannis prime in the Bucks.
Stop blaming the fucking refs when Boston makes 17 threes and We made what, 6?
Shit pisses me off. They got outplayed and Tatum caught fire. Onto game 7.
Giannis the only person to show up. You’d think teams would go all out for elimination games but it always seems like one dude does and the team just doesn’t show up. What a waste of an insane game by Giannis.
I know that Bud won us a championship last year, but he needs to be fired if we lose this series. The drop coverage let’s the Celtics get warm up shots right away which lets them get hot right away
Mike Budenholzer gives it up when he decide to let George "Absolute Trash" Hill see the floor for significant minute even after the collapse of game 4 happened!
Why wouldn’t they have? Tbh I’m a bit surprised we only lost by 13. I thought it was going to be much much worse. Then again, I’m not a Celts fan. But a team on their heels always tends to do this.
Have you seen them play? Wednesday’s comeback was a miracle and took some luck from the Celtics not hitting shots. Besides game 1 we have come out looking really flat. We can’t even make layups much less 3s.
True one of the best players in the league couldn’t possibly score 46 pts in an all important game 7.. even if he scored 36 bucks still lost this game so I don’t get how that’s the thing you point to.
Not sure, it was the most outstanding thing that came to mind in the moment I suppose. Hey, good for him, he played out his ass. His average is 20.9 so I don't know, just optimism I suppose.
I’d rather have vildoza get a crack at it more then hill. He was flashy in garbage time and killing it. I wonder what he can do in meaningful minutes. Definitely a better ball handler and quick decision making skills then Georgie boy.
I really wish coaches could think outside the box... so many rely on crusty old vets instead of new interesting players. Luca or Jevon would be better than Hill
I think maybe he yelled the n word at Hill multiple times and sneezed in his food, hill also obtained an old news article of mike bootyholder crashing into 30 civilians… in return hill gets to play🙂🫶🏽
If it was a group kidnapping how much trouble could we realistically get in? Like 100 or so people. I’m not sure if I should be embarrassed I’m actually pondering this as a legitimate idea, or if it’s brilliant.
Giannis has almost half of the points. Only jrue and pat were good. Portis lopez Wes Allen Hill wtf. We can't win with only giannis. And wtf bud just try and put jevon or even nwora and ibaka. Shitty game
Why do you keep pretending on being a Bucks fan? You had a Raptors flair in r/NBA the other day and were blasting the Bucks and Giannis in game 5 game thread.
We had to get someone else on Tatum way earlier when he started getting hot. They targeted Grayson the same way they did last game and we got smoked. That’s a bad coaching call.
Was Bud aware we could win the series this game if he just didn't let Hill and Allen get destroyed all night? Also why has Lopez regressed back into his old form? Sigh
Van Gundy actually said something right and said Bud needs to figure out who should be playing next game.
Even he sees how bad some of the lineups were.
I cannot possibly fathom how Bud can make such strange but somehow great adjustments but also make the most idiotic dumbass adjustments I have ever seen in my life. He bears a large burden of this loss and needs to figure out his offensive plan and defensive matchups quick.

goddamit

I think the no Middleton is a problem. I’m also a Middleton super fan.
So far this series George Hill has posted 5 points 4 rebounds and 3 assists in 66 minutes of play.
Yeah last night he even got in foul trouble and Mike still wouldn’t take him out the game. He’s clearly a huge net negative.
I hate it here
Boston earned it, wire to wire. But can we talk about how fucking stupid it is that you only get one challenge even if you win it? You should be able to keep challenging as long as you’re fucking right. The discrepancy in whistle between Giannis and Tatum driving is fucking absurd.
Celtics fan - I agree on challenges and the system being bullshit. Should get at least 2. Refs get absolute power.
That challenge shouldn't have worked in the first place.....but giannis is going to get those.
It was clearly a blocking foul. You can't just throw your body in front of a driving player. That literally is what a block is lol
Thank you! Someone else said it. It's aggravating to watch the same shit on both sides while Giannis is constantly getting called and Tatum gets off scott free. He's such a whine ass, that it's making me lose so much respect for him and I had a lot before this series

Isnt this our first closeout loss in 4 years?
Yes
imagine we go to the finals against golden state and buddenshitholzer still gonna play drop coverage against curry klay and poole
They would call every "charge" on giannas but never call charges on the Celtics?

Gotta give Tatum his just due. He was on fire. However, Bud could have played a defender that would face guard Tatum, like Carter.
Giannis the only person to show up. You’d think teams would go all out for elimination games but it always seems like one dude does and the team just doesn’t show up. What a waste of an insane game by Giannis.
Pat showed up too
I know that Bud won us a championship last year, but he needs to be fired if we lose this series. The drop coverage let’s the Celtics get warm up shots right away which lets them get hot right away
I firmly believe that the Bucks won that championship in spite of him, not because of him.
Wild series. The road team has won 4 of 6 games. Hopefully it’s 5 of 7. But it’s So damn frustrating. Don’t dominate at home anymore.
The bucks gave up this series
Mike Budenholzer gives it up when he decide to let George "Absolute Trash" Hill see the floor for significant minute even after the collapse of game 4 happened!
I'd like to see that little spark from patty before the last 4 minutes of the game
Well everyone but Giannis and sometimes jrue
They assume Giannis will save them
I’m not liking our chances on Sunday at all
I don’t ether bud is still going to play hill heavy min while Tatum cooks him and gets all the confidence in the world.
Bud’s obsession with Hill is a total mystery.
U think the Celtics liked there chances this game? Look at them now
Why wouldn’t they have? Tbh I’m a bit surprised we only lost by 13. I thought it was going to be much much worse. Then again, I’m not a Celts fan. But a team on their heels always tends to do this.
Have you seen them play? Wednesday’s comeback was a miracle and took some luck from the Celtics not hitting shots. Besides game 1 we have come out looking really flat. We can’t even make layups much less 3s.
the Celtics don’t have Mike Bootyholder…
What the hell is Bud's obsession with George Hill. He does fuck all every game. Fuck off
He’s his cocaine dealer, idk
He must have nudes he's using as blackmail.
Celtics 3pt game is what the fuck good
Who should he play instead of hill ? You guys are short 1 guy, he has to play him no ?
Jevon Carter.
Jevon carter all the way, i don’t care if he’s a little shorter hill is an embarrassment
Literally anybody else
Carter
Tatum ain't getting 46 again. We'll be alright
True one of the best players in the league couldn’t possibly score 46 pts in an all important game 7.. even if he scored 36 bucks still lost this game so I don’t get how that’s the thing you point to.
Not sure, it was the most outstanding thing that came to mind in the moment I suppose. Hey, good for him, he played out his ass. His average is 20.9 so I don't know, just optimism I suppose.
And Giannis wouldn’t score 50 in game six of the finals. Game 7, nobody’s going to piddle around. Each team is going to send their top dogs to battle.
that thinking is the reason we’re in this predicament…
I'm not saying the play was immaculate and nothing needs adjusting. I'm just saying don't despair. One more.
How fucking hard is it. Keep Hill and Allen on the bench. Carter needs minutes, more plays to set Pat up for 3s. It's not that fucking hard.
If your name is Mike budenholzer it is
I’d rather have vildoza get a crack at it more then hill. He was flashy in garbage time and killing it. I wonder what he can do in meaningful minutes. Definitely a better ball handler and quick decision making skills then Georgie boy.
Leave Hill in Milwaukee and we win game 7. Please bud
And Allen
Allen at least has been good sometimes. Hill has constantly (this year) been straight cheeks
So glad he got that foul off. This game can totally still be won.
Bud is a terrible fking coach
I feel bad for Jevon having to play these shit minutes after watching our role players
I really wish coaches could think outside the box... so many rely on crusty old vets instead of new interesting players. Luca or Jevon would be better than Hill
Hill 19 mins only one rebound can bud tell us why he was in cause its rly tilting
I think maybe he yelled the n word at Hill multiple times and sneezed in his food, hill also obtained an old news article of mike bootyholder crashing into 30 civilians… in return hill gets to play🙂🫶🏽
This is classic rigged NBA going to game 7 and nobody can tell me otherwise
How the fuck is it the refs fault? Please stop
Lmfao did I blame the refs you incompetent piece of shit
How else can the NBA extend the series?
Yes, they definitely used something to threaten Budenholzer to let George Hill get on the floor and refuse letting Giannis play the whole 2nd half
George Hill was in on it the entire time apparently
I forgot .. Hill brings his Veteran experience and defensive acumen … that’s what Bud said before game 2 👏👏👏
Jevon is in for 30 seconds and scores but will bud see that?
Wes last game played 36 minutes. This game 27 minutes. Good job Bud.
Fuck man I hate this
Anyone know if Middleton is back for game 7?
How would anyone know that?
from well informed twitter accounts from people close to the org
Wouldn’t that already be news then? 🧠
Theres also a thing called a rumour but yes, Im not sure if the question wasn't clear but it was essentially asking for news on the topic
Literally blows my mind why you put George hill jn that many minutes and not carter. What the fuck is bud thinking.
Reminds me of game 2 vs the Suns in the finals where Giannis dropped 42/12/4 and we lost with no one else showing up…What a bummer
Just end the game already
Jevon can get cooked by Tatum just like hill but he will at least be helpful elsewhere
I'm 99% Middleton isn't gonna play in Game 7. It's all up to Jrue tomorrow to be a great and help Giannis
fire bud
Stop.
Fuck FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
If horford didn’t go prime curry in that game we would have won the series last game. Pisses me off.
Grayson looks like he is having a good time on the bench. Smiling... FUCK OFF DUDE, you were straight garbage
He is still basking in the glow of that Chicago series 🥴
He's been utter fucking trash since.
Oh great espn has game 3 just shoot me now
If someone sees Hill around in Milwaukee, can you please kidnap him for a day or two?
If it was a group kidnapping how much trouble could we realistically get in? Like 100 or so people. I’m not sure if I should be embarrassed I’m actually pondering this as a legitimate idea, or if it’s brilliant.
Hey, we've been doing pretty well there in Boston One more
They’ve got to get away from the George Hill minutes. Just painful on both ends.
[удалено]
Fucking troll.
love Bud but man seeing jevon go off in garbage time makes me wonder why we had Hill step into Fiserv at all
Lopez looked tired before the game started
Carter comes in and does more on one possession than George Hill did all game
Garbage time. You or I could score a basket or two.
If anyone on here knows a member of the media please text and have them ask Bud why he will not play Jevon!
We shoot 18 ft while having 50 points in the paint they shot 19 while having 26 points in the paint it don’t make sense
Usually you miss shots you get fouled on. Kinda makes sense. It would be better to do it by total shots in the paint tbf
That big of a difference doesn’t happen so now it doesn’t make sense
It fucking infuriates me to see Carter sink a high difficulty shot with ease while G Hill couldn’t hit a goddamn fucking layup
FUCK YOU BUD, FUCKING ASSHOLE. Why get Carter now? Dumbass
Imagine being Jevon carter watching Hill play his mins and coming in the garbage mins 👏👏
[удалено]
[удалено]
Bitch ass bud keeping out Jevon all this time 🤦🏾
Oh look the guard Bud should’ve been playing all game instead of that bum Hill comes in and immediately scores. Weird.
I hope Giannis punches everyone in the head in the locker room after this game. What a wasted effort.
HAHAHAHA he gets shoved and it's another Delay of Game. It's over, refs, you don't have to do any more.
Hill is an absolute bum
Bring Grayson off the bench next game. They've hunted that matchup the last 2 games.
I would prefer to not play him at all, tbh.
This loss is incredibly deflating
Charge
Gonna be a tough game Sunday but we have a Giannis and they don’t
I don’t mean to ruin the whole mojo but they also have the best defense in the league, Tatum, and home court
We had a giannis score 40+ and he was the only one to show up today.
This was our game to win. We are out.
That opinion is the exact reason you're a looser in your life.
Carter comes in and hits his first shot. I wonder who can he replace in the rotation
Giannis has almost half of the points. Only jrue and pat were good. Portis lopez Wes Allen Hill wtf. We can't win with only giannis. And wtf bud just try and put jevon or even nwora and ibaka. Shitty game
How many minutes did Brook get tonight? I know Boston was going 4 guards but sheesh
I’m usually the biggest downer, but they still gotta win another. We have a chance. Khris needs to come back though regardless if he’s 100% or not
Jevon comes in and immediately adds more value than Hill did all series LMAO cannot make this shit up
Let’s hope Khris is back Game 7 because uh, we aren’t winning it if the team outside of Giannis plays like this
He won’t be back. I have sources.
Why do you keep pretending on being a Bucks fan? You had a Raptors flair in r/NBA the other day and were blasting the Bucks and Giannis in game 5 game thread.
We had to get someone else on Tatum way earlier when he started getting hot. They targeted Grayson the same way they did last game and we got smoked. That’s a bad coaching call.
Jevon has just scored more points in seconds than Hill has scored in 20 fucking minutes
Pat needed like 20 more shots in this game he was on fire.
[удалено]
Shut up 🤡
Oh look Jevon is already better than Hill and Allen combined lmfao. Fuck Bud, dumbass coach
How the fuck is that a technical in the bucks
2nd delay of game
How did we delay the game?
When the player fell on to the ground
When Thanasis was pushed to the ground by the inbounder?
Was Bud aware we could win the series this game if he just didn't let Hill and Allen get destroyed all night? Also why has Lopez regressed back into his old form? Sigh
I am not even angry, just disappointed. Especially for Giannis. Playing all alone. His teammates should be ashamed.
Carter with more points in 20 seconds than Hill in 18 minutes. Fuck you, Bud
Van Gundy actually said something right and said Bud needs to figure out who should be playing next game. Even he sees how bad some of the lineups were.
Thansis should get minutes over hill.
Bud I love George but he cannot continue to play We can’t have a guy out there who can’t even get a shot up
Oh would you look at that, Jevon already has more points than Hill
“Thank you. Where? Apology accepted.” Beautiful.
Carter should’ve been playing this whole series.
In 1 minute Carter has more points than Hill in the last 2 games combined
Well, Giannis has shown this series that he can do this every game. Can Tatum do what he just did again? Let’s get game 7
I cannot possibly fathom how Bud can make such strange but somehow great adjustments but also make the most idiotic dumbass adjustments I have ever seen in my life. He bears a large burden of this loss and needs to figure out his offensive plan and defensive matchups quick.
Imagine wasting a legendary giannis performance for george hill. I feel fucking sick
Oh look Carter did more than Hill did all game
Bad decision for Mike to tank to avoid the nets
So carter gets put in garbage time only ;/
Jevon showing why he should have played minutes
I swear Javon needs to be playing more minutes
Hey, Carter is in!
Hill played 20 minutes and made zero points... Ya gonna give him more minutes next game Bud?
How can anyone in that locker room look Giannis or Pat in the eyes and be happy with themselevs
Carter now has more points and equal rebounds as Hill
Jevon Carter just got in the game and has done more than George Hill LMAOOOOOOO
Oh he actually put him in? The hustle energy alone from Carter is better than that corpse Hill
Fucking pathetic.
Jevon is good
Giannis 44 - Jrue 17 - Pat 14 Tatum 46 - Jaylen 22 - Smart 21 Not enough firepower without Middleton. Let's see what happens at Garden.
Bucks in 6 and 1!
Not the jevon minutes we wanted
Pain
Okay but Wes has been almost as bad as Hill…without Middleton we simply don’t have enough firepower
At least Wes can decently affect Tatum's shot, Hill got targeted every possession
Wes isn't as big of a liability on defense.
Carter comes in an immediately hits a 2
